@djaehnig.bsky.social★★★☆☆ The Aristocats (1970) - Charming, breezy with a great Paris setting & some memorable music, even if the story feels a slight. Scatman Crothers as Scat Cat is easily the highlight for me, & “Ev’rybody Wants to Be a Cat” is where the whole movie comes alive. #TheAristocats #Disney #ClassicFilm

@djaehnig.bsky.social★★★☆☆ The Last Days of Pompeii (1935) - An odd but entertaining mix of Roman spectacle, morality play, and disaster movie, with Jesus & the Crucifixion worked into the story. The effects & destruction of Pompeii remain impressive 90 years later. #TheLastDaysOfPompeii #ClassicFilm #1935

@ilearntoday.bsky.social#TIL Vin Diesel asked Universal not to make a sequel to The Fast and the Furious because he thought sequels might hurt the first film’s chance of becoming a classic.
